Author Listening to radio streams on amarok (Debian)

Hello,

Whenever I try to play a radio stream on amarok on my Debian Testing system,
I get a "No suitable input plugin" error. Upon Googling, I found that the
reason is that a package named libxine-extracodecs that is available for
Ubuntu is not available in the official repos in Debian. Now, that package
has other dependencies that are also not available in official repos and
further I am not keen on mixing distros.

I was wondering if someone knows of a set of Debian packages / some other
repo (preferably for Testing) that has the requisite packages. Amarok can
play my own mp3's fine, its playing windows playlists and realaudio streams
that it cannot seem to manage.

Thanks.
